Next Steps After Oath (Currently pending)

[Haresh Keswani]

All:

Please let me know what are the next steps after taking the oath ceremony. As indicated in another thread I'm still waiting for my Oath letter with interview complted on 11/20 successfully. I have also moved to NY and have kept kansas residence.

I need to apply for US passport - how much time it takes ? any ideas ? Since I have already moved - is it ok to apply from new state ( i think it is ok)?

Also how much time does it take to apply OCI card for India?

Please let me know.

Happy Holidays!

Thanks,
Haresj

After the oath you'll want to get a passport (2-3 weeks expedited, 6-8 weeks normal processing) and also inform the social security administration of your new status (take natz cert to local office). Don' forget to register to vote, usually at your local DMV.
